Episode #385 of Six Pixels of Separation – The Twist Image Podcast is now live and ready for you to listen to.
True story: when we first started Twist Image back in 2000, I wasn’t sure how we were going to get any new clients. I started reading books, attending seminars and doing anything I could to up my game in regards to sales and selling. At every turn, the name Jeffrey Gitomer kept creeping up. From his amazing (and free!) e-newsletter, Sales Caffeine (which I still read religiously), to seminal books like The Sales Bible. Back then, he was offering up teleseminars (like Webinars, but over the phone). They weren’t that expensive, but I would still order them, invite a bunch of people over to my office, and we would all split the fee as a way to save some money. I’m sure Jeffrey didn’t allow that, but I didn’t have the money so I got resourceful. Since then, Jeffrey has continued to pound out bestselling business books at a frenetic pace and it’s a crazy world that allows me to also call him a friend. Most recently, he published Jeffrey Gitomer’s 21.5 Unbreakbale Laws of Selling – Proven Actions You Must Take To Make Easier, Faster, Bigger Sales… Now And Forever (now that’s a title!). As part of the book launch, Jeffrey invited me to add some bonus material for those who would purchase the book on launch day. We recorded this conversation as a that bonus content. Thankfully, Jeffrey was kind enough to allow me to release it now that the launch phase of the book has subsided. I’m thrilled to share this with you. Enjoy the conversation…

By far, hands down, the best interview I’ve heard since Marcus Sheridan, the Sales Lion. Would love to hear a Triple Threat Gitomer/Sheridan/Joel Mash-up.
Time to get the Little Red Book of Sales out again!
Mitch,
I listened to this podcast while driving to my hotel on a business trip late yesterday evening. I was arriving late due to multiple flight delays. When you and Jeffrey started the discussion about the J.D. Powers & Associates Awards for the airlines, I laughed so hard I literally started crying! That discussion and the lessons behind it came at a time when I really needed it.
Thank you for such an informative podcast. I subscribe to your podcasts, and every time I receive a new one on my iPhone, it’s like receiving a wonderful gift. I purchased Jeffrey’s Kindle version of the book and will begin devouring it on my Amazon Kindle Cloud Reader over the Thanksgiving Holiday.
Take care and a Safe & Happy Thanksgiving to you, Jeffrey, and your families.
